[Zope-CMF] Re: metadata project

[Laurence Rowe]

You may be interested in taking a look at this project in the Plone 
Collective:

http://svn.plone.org/view/collective/CMFMetadata/

(there's a dependency on http://svn.plone.org/view/collective/Annotations/
)

I haven't used it myself for several months though, so I have no idea if 
it is compatible with cmf 1.5.
